“Honor of Kings” Soundtrack vol. 6 is out
I’m super happy to share that some of my work for the incredible game “Honor of Kings” (TiMi Studios/Tencent Games) was recently released on their Vol. 6 Soundtrack. Here is an excerpt from “Child of Woods”. In depicting this champion and her beast, I was inspired by own little girl and dog and their friendship.
Beyond the thematic aspects of the music, this piece is a bit of love letter to Chinese percussion, characterized by its dynamic and vibrant sound, which often features a diverse range of colors played with great skill and precision. The music features dangu, a large bass drum; bangu, taipinggu and huagu, incredibly fun hand percussion instruments; all flavors of gongs, the bangu, a small hand-held drum; and the paiban, a pair of wooden clappers. Together, these instruments create a mesmerizing and dynamic sound that is uniquely Chinese in character.
